  1. One mole of a substance has a mass in grams numerically equal to its ?.

    Show answer

    relative formula mass

  2. Why can balanced equation coefficients be read as mole ratios?

    Show answer

    They give the fixed proportions in which substances react, so doubling one species doubles all the others.

  3. What is the value of Avogadro's constant?

    Show answer

    6.02 × 10²³ per mole.

  4. What is the mass of one mole of carbon (Ar = 12)?

    Show answer

    12 g.

  5. What quantity does the mole measure?

    Show answer

    The amount of a substance — just as metres measure distance and seconds measure time.

  6. What is the equation for the number of moles in a sample?

    Show answer

    moles = mass ÷ Mr.

  7. What mass of carbon is contained in 3 moles of CO₂?

    Show answer

    36 g — multiply the 3 moles by the Ar of carbon (12).

  8. How many moles are in 42.5 g of ammonia, NH₃ (Mr = 17)?

    Show answer

    2.5 moles, since 42.5 ÷ 17 = 2.5.

  9. In Mg + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂, how many moles of HCl react with one mole of magnesium?

    Show answer

    2 moles of HCl.

  10. What is the mass of 3 moles of carbon dioxide (Mr = 44)?

    Show answer

    132 g, from mass = moles × Mr = 3 × 44.
